Retirement Properties Spotlight in Dinas Powys

Dinas Powys was an ancient stronghold and remains have been found of Neolithic Stone age artefacts as well as pottery from the 5th and 6th centuries. The village remained a successful farming community for much of the middle ages and then expanded in the 19th century with the coming of the railways. Local facilities are good with a good range of village shops and small supermarkets, pubs and restaurants and easy access to Cardiff which is about five miles to the southwest.
